Mary Berry Bubble and Squeak Recipe

Print Recipe

Bubble and squeak is a traditional British dish made by combining cooked potatoes with leftover vegetables, most commonly cabbage or Brussels sprouts. The mixture is shaped and fried until golden. Mary Berry’s approach keeps it simple, focusing on good seasoning, gentle frying, and letting the natural flavours of the vegetables shine.

Ingredients

Cooked potatoes – 600 g, mashed or roughly crushed
Cooked cabbage or Brussels sprouts – 300 g, finely chopped
Unsalted butter – 30 g
Olive oil – 1 tablespoon
Salt – to taste
Black pepper – to taste

Instructions

Prepare the vegetables – Chop the cooked cabbage or Brussels sprouts finely so they mix evenly with the potatoes.
Combine the mixture – Place the potatoes and vegetables into a bowl, season with salt and black pepper, and mix gently until combined.
Heat the pan – Melt the butter with the olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
Add the mixture – Spoon the potato mixture into the pan and spread it out evenly, pressing it down lightly.
Cook until golden – Fry for 6–8 minutes without stirring, allowing a crisp crust to form underneath.
Flip carefully – Turn the mixture over in sections or as one large cake and cook the other side for another 5–6 minutes.
Serve hot – Remove from the pan once both sides are golden and crisp.
